Demi Lovato Attacks 'Twerking': Wants Word In Limelight Since Miley Cyrus VMA Performance To Disappear

It's no secret that the decades-old phenomenon of twerking is having a bit of a mainstream resurgence right now. Largely on the strength of buzz created by Miley Cyrus' unicorn onesie video and a performance at the VMAs, the word was even accepted by the Oxford Dictionary Online, making it an official part of the English language. There's one pop star who isn't happy with all the twerk talk, Miley's fellow Disney star Demi Lovato.

Can the world stop talking about twerking please?

While Lovato isn't a fan of twerking, she made it clear that she has nothing but love for Miley.

Btw - no shade thrown.. Don't even try to start that crap. Haha... the term twerking just needs to disappear like the word swag does too..
